Ingredients
Overnight Oats Base
- 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp hemp seeds
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/4 cup almonds, roughly chopped
- 1 1/4 cup soy milk (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (smooth or chunky, unsweetened)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup (or to taste)
- 1 tbsp dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, mix the rolled oats, hemp seeds, chia seeds, chopped almonds, soy milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, and dark chocolate chips thoroughly. Use a spoon to ensure the peanut butter is fully dissolved and evenly incorporated into the mixture.
- Refrigerate to Rest: Cover the container securely and place it in the refrigerator to rest for at least 3 hours. Resting time can be adjusted according to preference; a longer resting time results in thicker, creamier oats.
- Serve and Customize: When ready to eat, stir the oats and add extra soy milk if you prefer a thinner consistency. Top with fresh fruits or more nuts if desired to enhance flavor and texture. This recipe yields two servings or one large portion.
Notes
- Adjust maple syrup to your preferred level of sweetness or substitute with agave syrup or honey if not strictly vegan.
- For a nut-free version, replace almonds and peanut butter with sunflower seeds and sunflower seed butter.
- Use gluten-free rolled oats if you require a gluten-free recipe.
- To boost protein further, add a tablespoon of ground flaxseed or additional hemp seeds.
- Overnight oats can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, making it perfect for meal prep.
